“Yes, of course. You still have a long life ahead of you, Ms. Haab. It’s too pessimistic to say that.
Perhaps the future will be brighter and more vibrant, Rosalie said.
Amelia looked at Rosalie in surprise and said, “You seem to have changed a little.”
“Changed? Rosalie was confused.
“Yes. When you first came to my diner, it seemed you were embodied in gloominess, as if you were
overwhelmed by life. But looking at you now, it seems the depression has dissipated gradually, and
you’re more hopeful for the future,” said Amelia.
Tm hopeful for the future? thought Rosalie, stunned. ‘Is it because Lillian is helping me investigate
the case? Or perhaps, is it because there’s a new beginning between Jonathan and me?”
At night, Rosalie exited the diner and saw a car parked not far away. It was Jonathan’s car.
She stepped forward, and the car door was already open. Jonathan sat in the back seat and said to
her, “Get in.”
“I have to go back by electric scooter, or it’ll be too troublesome for me toe here tomorrow
morning.” She said that and thought, “The vast area where he stays is his family’s property. So,
there aren’t any buses nearby. There’s a long distance from the Youngblood residence to the bus
station.”
As though he had heard a joke, Jonathan looked at her smilingly and said, “I’ll send you here
tomorrow morning.” Then, he, grabbed her hand and pulled her into the car.
Rosalie was speechless, thinking, “I earn 1,200 dors a month in sry. Yet he picks me up with
his Bentley, to and from work. It feels like reading news of those who drive BMWs to sell oranges.”
“When did you arrive?” Rosalie found a topic to ask so that the atmosphere in the car was not that
awkward.
Although she was dating Jonathan, she did not know how to get along with him.
“I arrived around 6:30 p.m.,” he said.
She was startled, thinking, “6:30 p.m.? It’s nine o’clock now, which means he has been waiting
outside for two and a half hours?”
Were you waiting in the car?” She looked at him in shock.
“Hmm.” he answered. Then, he pulled her hands and ced them between his palms, rubbing
slightly. Even though the weather was getting warmer, he still seemed to like warming her hands in
such a manner. He wanted her hands infused with his body temperature:
You can go back first. There’s no need for you to wait outside for so long,” said Rosalie. She had
presumed he waste leaving thepany and came to pick her up while on the way.
“I want to see you earlier,” he said. Then, he lowered his head to kiss her fingertips gently.
When he was in the car, he saw her delivering takeout orders and going in and out of the diner. He
even wondered, “Apparently, she can opt for a simpler and easier lifestyle. Why did she settle for
such a tiring way of life?”
“You really don’t need me to find you another job?” Jonathan said, “You weren’t willing because you
didn’t wish to be tangled with me before. How about now? I want to help you. Can’t you ept
that?”
Im doing well working in the diner now. The proprietress and the staff are getting along very well.
Besides…” Rosalie took a deep breath and continued, “I know it would be a great job if you were to
introduce work to me, but I want to live depending on myself.
Perhaps it was because of previous experiences, all the while, that led her to feel she could not
easily depend on the lives others provided Once the support was gone, she knew it would be
another disastrous catastrophe for her.
Jonathan fixed his gaze on Rosalie. After a while, he lowered his eyes slightly and said, “If you want
to continue working there, that’s okay. When you want to change your job, just let me know.”
“Okay Rosalie nodded. This time, she did not refuse Jonathan’s good intentions. “By the way, since
you have been waiting outside for so long, have you had dinner?” asked Rosalie, having suddenly
thought of it.
“Not yet, answered Jonathan
Then why didn’t youe into the diner to eat? Rosalie asked. Although it was a diner, there were
many dishes and pastas for him to order.
Rosalie did not ponder much about whether Jonathan would befortable with those dishes. AfterContent is ? by N?velDrama.Org.
all, when Jonathan was with her in the rental home before, even if it was a simple meal, he would
eat with her without any difort.
“Okay, I’ll go into the diner next time, Jonathan replied.
Rosalie suddenly felt that she had said something wrong. If Jonathan really entered the diner as
suggested, she felt the

atmosphere would change ordingly.
The car arrived at the Youngblood residence, and they entered the house. The home chef had
already prepared Jonathan’s dinner, so Rosalie apanied him to eat.
Of course, for Rosalie, that was technically supper.
During the meal, Rosalie would also talk about things in the diner, such as how working as a
delivery rider was actually not that tiring. The busy period was basically noon and evening, whereas
other times were rtively free.
“Ms. Haab treats me pretty well. When I apply for leave and whatnot, she’ll agree to help cover me.
In fact, I am very grateful to her for not minding my past and still hiring me As Rosalie said that, her
expression darkened momentarily. “What’s the matter? Are you thinking of your case?” Jonathan
frowned and asked, “Do you need me to intervene with your
case
“Tentatively, there’s no need. Lillian is helping me look for the evidence.” As she said that, Rosalie
suddenly bit her lip and continued, “In that case, I wasn’t drunk driving back then. Also, I did not
crash into Mnie’s car. At that time, it was her car that seemingly lost control and crashed into
mine. You believe me?”
When she uttered thest three words, she looked at him with slight nervousness, thinking, “Since
when did I start to care whether he really believes me or not?”
At the very least, she would not be bothered if others did not believe her. She would let thew clear
her name. But before that, she hoped he would believe that she was innocent. It was not to dismiss
her perfunctorily, but for Jonathan himself to believe in her innocence.
The lights in the dining room fell on his face. Even his beautifully flirtatious eyes were tinged with a
shroud of dim yellow light, making his eyes appear hazy. There, too, was seemingly ayer of
gauze separating them, which made it hard for her to see clearly.
His eyshes quivered slightly, and his hand holding the fork tightened too. After a moment, his lips
moved slowly, and he uttered what she wanted to hear. “I believe you.”
